    I personally would recommend using distilled water with rose water mixed with a carrier oil like jojoba oil, and essential oils like tea tree oil, peppermint in a spray bottle. This will prevent fungi/mold growth and save you a massive headache down the road.

    I’m 10 years Loc’d.
    I take very good care of my hair, keeping it clean, drinking water and slowing down on juice/soda.
    I had them done last week on Thursday in two strand twists, but a day or two after getting them done, I wore a satin bonnet to protect my style and from lint etc, but it makes my head itch for some weird reason, even though my scalp was already oiled when I got my hair done, so I recently oiled my hair and scalp…it toned down a little tbh but it was redness in some areas.

    • @NiqGodessEnergy
      @NiqGodessEnergy 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Sounds like whatever oil you’re using, your scalp doesn’t agree. I had the same problem. The redness is from your scratching and the itchiness is from the oil irritating your scalp.
